Even though it has been a long time since he has written he informs Hudson that neither he nor his journal has been forgotten. He was presented with a wood crucifix 12 feet long and the figure of Our Lord is six feet high. Last Sunday it was of Our Lord is six feet high. Last Sunday it was blessed by Bishop Francis Mora after the solemn Pontifical Vespers were over. He was accompanied by neighboring priests. The new crucifix was put outside the railing where it was kissed by hundreds. The news of the destruction of the University has saddened his soul, and a gift of $6 is enclosed. He also sends a money order for the subscription to the Ave Maria for Mrs. B. Peyton and Mrs. P. Walsh. He encloses papers about the Sanctuaries of Our Lady written sometime ago. He asks for prayers and hopes the rich will give generously for the rebuilding of Notre Dame. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo
